Charge the tenants a flat rate for sewer/water/trash that would mostly cover my costs.  

If you want to be good to your Tenant, maybe offer other perks, but bake an increase into the new Lease, in that way, you are increasing the value of your RE business (will come in handy if you were to sell the property or obtain a portfolio refinance as your cash flow from the property would be higher).

>Unemployment - The ones most heavily impacted by unemployment are unfortunately those that were not in the home buying pool and will continue to be rentersI make the case if they are renters or potential purchasers both effect the price.  2020 had flat rents (meaning not greater than inflation).  

I would tell them there are cameras and if I catch them again they will be reported for trespassing and charged for damage to my lawn.Then I would either install a camera or I would install some very long, sharp spikes in the dirt to guarantee at least one flat tire if they did it again.Then, and only then, would I consider the additional expense of a fence, boulders, or whatever.

I would guess it's based on speculation that's baked in but I don't see how it's worth the risk- especially when Pittsburgh yards seems to be much less of an attractive retail destination compared to other beltline developments (west end development, Ponce, potentially Murphy Crossing..).

Hi Chicago Investors,I'm fixing up my Lincoln Square 3-flat and noticed a sloping issue today with all of my bath tubs.

Basically, the cost is baked into the loan.Good luck.

If so, should I also calculate additional costs for getting the land build-ready and permitting, or would that be baked into those costs?

With the relaxation of ADU ("Granny Flat") regulations in CA, I decided to convert the existing separate garage (no rented) to an ADU while the main house is rented.

On management my PM charges me a flat per unit fee (rather than % of rent).
